Shrimps in tomato rice - Räkor i tomatris

SHRIMPS IN TOMATO RICE
Räkor i tomatris

An easy-to-make festive dish or a nice supper dish. The rice gets its taste from the bouillon and tomatoes.

4 servings

5 oz bacon
1 chopped onion
½ chopped green bell pepper
1 to 2 crushed garlic cloves
1 cup long-grained rice
1 ¼ cup chicken bouillon
1 can crushed tomatoes, 14 oz
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon white pepper
2 lbs un-peeled shrimps or 14 oz peeled

Decoration:
parsley
lemon wedges


Fry the bacon until crisp in a frying pan, drain on paper towels and cut it in pieces. Pour 2 tbsps of the bacon fat in a saucepan and sizzle onion, bell pepper and garlic until everything is tender. Add the rice and stir. Sizzle the mixture for a few minutes. Add bouillon, tomatoes and spices, cover and boil for about 20 minutes.

Blend in the peeled shrimps and bacon pieces and flavour more if needed. Heat up the rice so that the shrimps are heated through. Put it in a bowl and decorate with parsley and lemon wedges.

Serve with bread and a salad, e.g. tomato onion salad.

Enjoy!
